A schematic longitudinal section of the spikelet of barley (Hordeum vulgare) shows a long awn-bearing lemma enclosing a floret within the ear (inflorescence). Internal features include three stamens with elongate anthers, a central ovary with bifid, feathery stigmas, and the palea, with glumes and rachilla at the base. In botany and plant reproductive biology, this Poaceae structure is the basic unit of the grass inflorescence, enabling wind pollination and subsequent grain (caryopsis) development.
